Can I plug a refrigerator into this

It's a pretty heavy duty cord. I wouldn't see a problem with plugging a refrigerator up to it.

I imagine that you could plug a refrigerator into this, but it doesn't seem like a great idea. I'd guess that something with that much power should be plugged into its own outlet.

Basically, electrical cords are rated by the maximum wattage dissipation within the cord. Too technical? Too many watts can cause the cord to overheat. Watts are the product of volts x amps -- and since we normally deal with 120VAC lines, the rating is expressed as amps. This cord can handle 15 amps. Therefore, if your refigerator wattage (usually found on the refigerator or in the manual) is 1800 watts or less, then the extension cord would work just fine. Regards,

Hi Kathy,I think that would depend on the size of the refrigerator. If it's a small hotel or mini-bar like critter, then sure. However, a full-size fridge would be too much for it. My guess is it would eventually overheat the housing of the cable and cause a fire. Better to get one with a heavy duty rating at Home Depot or other outlet like that, or better yet, just plug your fridge into the wall using it's own cord. If you can't get the thing close enough to the outlet to do that, the heavy-duty cord is your next best option. You'll sleep better at night. ;)

Not entirely sure but there isnt anything too unique other than itvis a deep cycle marine battery with high cold cranking amps for starting the motor. If the fridge truely runs on a 12v battery it would probably be fine but might be overkill and you could look at cheaper options.

Not sure just what your referring to, but the generator had multiple outlets for both 110v and 220v. So if you need to power up a refrigerator, for instance, you can just plug it right into the generator. You can also plug in a power strip and then plug in 3, 4 or even 5 different pieces of equipment. And just so you know this unit is large enough to power the entire house ...

I bought this for my refrigerator. It's plugged into a regular wall socket. Couldn't tell you the amps.

I plan on unplugging the refrigerator and plugging it into a extension cord from our Prius inverter. Why complicate things/drain your wallet, with a $90 switch? One could install the input plug ($10) on the furnace and a female on the power supply, unplug it during outage and plug in gen/inverter extension cord and accomplish the same thing as this switch.

No it does not. You would have to figure out a way to attach it to the fridge.

I just tossed it all out and bought a new fridge....would have sent it to you had I known! It was plug and play but I had an existing place to plug it as this was bought as a replacement. I called the guy before I ordered it and when it arrived. He was very happy to answer all my questions. Good luck!

Yes. There is an A/C adapter that you plug into wall outlet and then plug cigarette lighter plug on refrigerator into that. I THINK it comes with it but I may have bought it separately. Should be able to see it listed as a feature or an added accessory. Works great!

I would say since the refrigerator it connects to is 12 volts and the car radio runs on 12 volts, should work just fine. Not sure how you would make the connection to make the radio work, but good luck

yes - it will work with your fridge if it has an Ethernet port on it. That said, I have junked mine as I find it too unreliable

Yes but you should run refrigerator on a timer to keep it from going into defrost mode witch can pull as much as 1000 watts for 2 hours

Hi- not unless you cut off the ground prong. But I don't know if the unit would supply power to anything if it is not connected to ground- that's a question the manufacturer would need to answer. If it did, you could then plug in multiple appliances. You might search for one that's designed for 2 prongs- I think I saw a couple when I was looking for this one. Good luck-

No. This had an adjustable regulator for a pot burner. It is not safe to use for a refrigerator. You need a fixed pressure regulator for an appliance. See you local propane company or RV dealer.

It's a 15 amp circuit. So if your refrigerator is on a 15 amp circuit it should work. My only worry would be the age of the refrigerator and how much of a power draw the compressor takes on start up. Probably not a problem with the newer appliances.

not directly. you would need a converter like you need if you go to Europe to use your appliances over there.

I've never done that. It's just a regular refrigerator. You'd probably have to watch out for the weather.

Not required, even if hooked up to a generator instead of city/county power. My refrigerator and freezer work fine as well as some battery chargers I had running off the dirty output of a poorly regulating generator but the UPS kept flickering on and off so I had to unplug it.
